The media's attempt to install an unqualified ultra-left radical in the White House has entered the Twilight Zone with the alarmingly powerful AP's attempt to smear as racist anyone who objects to Obama's close association with anti-American terrorists.

Obama is a protégé of unrepentant Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers, who introduced him to the Chicago political scene at his apartment back in 1995. Highlights of Ayers's resume include bombing the Pentagon, the Capitol, and New York City police headquarters, getting away with it because of "prosecutorial misconduct," then bragging in the September 11, 2001 edition of the New York Times that he wished he had done more.

Also in attendance at Obama's coming out party was Ayers's wife Bernardine Dohrn, another unrepentant terrorist who invented the Weather Underground's three-fingered "fork salute" in honor of the fork the Manson Family stuck in Sharon Tate's pregnant belly.

Obama has worked closely with Ayers on the Woods Fund and the Annenberg Challenge. When their friendship actually began is unknown, but Dohrn knew Obama's noisily anti-American wife at least since 1988.

No reasonable person aware of this information would want Barack Obama to have access to America's nuclear codes — which is why AP has declared discussion of the topic to be racist. Here's how it tried to slap down Sarah Palin for bringing it up:

By claiming that Democrat Barack Obama is "palling around with terrorists" and doesn't see the U.S. like other Americans, vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin targeted key goals for a faltering campaign.

And though she may have scored a political hit each time, her attack was unsubstantiated and carried a racially tinged subtext that John McCain himself may come to regret. […] Palin's words avoid repulsing voters with overt racism. But is there another subtext for creating the false [sic] image of a black presidential nominee "palling around" with terrorists while assuring a predominantly white audience that he doesn't see their America?

It doesn't matter that Obama's terrorist mentors Ayers and Dohrn are Caucasians. All resistance to the Obamessiah is racist.
